Comprehension Questions

Question	Answer
Did you have to resolve any issues when running the HTML Validator? If so, what were they?	I forgot an alt tag on one of my images. It also gave me a couple of warnings about some sections not having headings and to only use h1 as a top-level heading only, since I have an h1 outside of my header that's visible in computer and tablet mode (the one in the header is only visible on mobile).
Why is it important to consider and use semantic HTML?	It's important for making the code more readable (for others and yourself), and probably more importantly for accessibility reasons. Screen readers will get more information from semantic HTML. It also helps google know what's important on your page.
How did you decide to structure your CSS?	I put the main structural stuff that applies to every page at the top, mostly in order of how it appears on the screen. Then I put classes that affected structure across different pages, and then non-structural elements, page-specific css, a clearfix class, and classes to hide/show elements on mobile view.
What was the most challenging piece of this assignment?	Design! And making design decisions! I definitely spent more time than I should have on design...especially since I'm still not in love with how it came out. Also: coming up with content! (You may notice my blog pages currently have placeholder images and lorem ipsum because I ran out of time.)
Describe one area that you gained more clarity on when completing this assignment	Using web developer tools. I think I'd used something similar before, but probably not to its full potential, so I had fun playing around with inspecting different elements and searching for rogue padding and margins.

Very clean HTML and CSS. Very readable class and id names. Seems like you have an excellent understanding of reusing your CSS. You might consider using using 'em' or 'rem' over 'px' for responsiveness (although your site resized very nicely).
